Description
SAVORY CLUSTER SNACK FOOD
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Technical Field
[0001 ] The present invention relates to an improved snack food product and more
particularly to a snack food product that incorporates a savory cluster component to provide a good source of fibre and protein.
Description of Related Art
[0002] One example of a snack food mixture is known colloquially as trail mix. Trail mix is a mixture of nuts, such as peanuts or cashews, and partially dried fruit, like raisins or dried cranberries. Many of these snack mixtures contain granola.
[0003] Granola is also incorporated into snack bars, sometimes with different
components such as nuts, other grains, or dried fruit. These granola bars may be eat as a snack or as a meal replacement.
[0004] Often, the granola used in snack mixtures or snack bars is seasoned or mixed with other components to achieve an overall sweet taste. Nut and/or granola clusters have conventionally been made with the use of binding slurry consisting mainly of sugars and/or maltodextrins. The slurry is blended with the dry components (e.g. nuts and/or cereal pieces) at a temperature significantly higher than the Glass Transition
Temperature (Tg) of the slurry, shaped into clusters/bars and cooled to below Tg, so that the binder forms a glass with a crispy (non-chewy) texture. This can be achieved in two ways: 1) reducing the temperature to below Tg as in the case of sugar-based binders, or 2) increasing the Tg by removing plasticizers present in the slurry (e.g. evaporating solvents/water in dryer). Sugar based slurries have the advantage of not requiring an additional drying operation, but the product is inherently sweet and glossy, something not desirable in savory applications.
[0005] WO- A-2017/078519 discloses sweet-type cereal bars including a binder syrup comprising soluble dietary fibre chosen from fructo-oligosaccharide and/or inulin, which have an intrinsic sweet taste, and insoluble dietary fibre from the same plant source. WO-A-00/056171 discloses cereal bars including binders comprising sugar, milk solids and a binding agent such as a polysaccharide or gum. US-A-2012/0269939 discloses cereal binder compositions including milk/whey protein and a sugar syrup. WO-A-2011/019690 discloses a food binder syrup comprising polydextrose, crystalline fructose and glycerin. WO-A-01/97633 discloses nutrient clusters with a binder
comprising nutritive carbohydrate sweetening agents, and soluble fibre from fructo- oligosaccharides. US-A-2014/0093635 discloses a savory, as opposed to sweet, granola snack food.
[0006] However, there is still a need to provide a savory snack food comprising clusters which have the combination of desired nutritional content, low cost and ease of manufacture to produce a light and crispy texture, with minimized shiny glaze.
[0007] The present invention is accordingly directed towards providing an improved savory snack food product.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0008] The present invention provides a snack food product comprising a plurality of savory clusters, each cluster comprising a dry mixture comprising at least one grain, at least one seed and at least one nut, the mixture being coated with a binder, wherein the binder comprises or consists of a mixture of a soluble dietary fibre component and a low dextrose equivalent (DE) sugar syrup, the low dextrose equivalent (DE) sugar syrup having a maximum dextrose equivalent (DE) of 40, in a weight ratio within the range of from 30:70 to 70:30, and each cluster comprises from 65 to 85 wt% of the mixture and from 15 to 35 wt% of the binder, each wt% value being the based on the total weight of the cluster.
[0009] The preferred embodiments of the snack food product of the present invention are high in protein and rich in fibres. Furthermore, the preferred embodiments of the snack food product of the present invention are high in wholegrains, seeds and nuts. The preferred embodiments of the snack food product of the present invention are designed to provide a satisfying snack between meals or in place of a meal.
[0010] The snack food product may be presented to the consumer in a number of forms.
In one embodiment, the snack food product is a loose snack mixture or a snack bar. In the loose snack mixture the clusters are typically substantially spherical or
hemispherical. In the loose snack mixture the clusters are typically "bite-size", having a maximum dimension of from 1.5 to 2.5 cm.
[0011 ] By providing a dry mixture comprising at least one grain, at least one seed and at least one nut, the clusters are not only multi-textured, they can also be multi-colored. There is no requirement to add coloring agents to the clusters. There is no requirement to add artificial flavoring agents to the clusters. Any seasonings may be derived from, or comprise, natural ingredients.
[0012] The binder can provide a glaze with minimum shine on the clusters. Such a minimum shine is consistent with an expectation by the consumer that the product would have no or low sweetness and would be savory.
[0013] The preferred embodiments of the snack food product of the present invention provide a snack food product, in the form of clusters, the clusters consisting of puffed and/or extruded grains, nuts and seeds, which are rich in fibre and a source of protein. Preferably, the grains are wholegrains, i.e. comprising the whole endosperm, bran and germ of the grain.
[0014] The soluble dietary fibre is soluble in water or other aqueous liquids.
[0015] In one preferred embodiment the binder is a soluble corn fibre component, which comprises soluble corn fibre, mixed with low dextrose equivalent (DE) sugar syrup, which typically comprises or is a low dextrose equivalent (DE) glucose syrup. The soluble corn fibre is soluble in water or other aqueous liquids.
[0016] The soluble dietary fibre component may be incorporated into the low dextrose equivalent (DE) sugar syrup as a dry ingredient, which in the binder is suspended in the sugar syrup. Alternatively, and preferably, the soluble dietary fibre component may be incorporated into the binder as a liquid ingredient, in which the soluble dietary fibre is suspended or dissolved in a carrier. The carrier may be water or a sugar-containing composition. The carrier containing the soluble dietary fibre is then blended with the sugar syrup.
[0017] The soluble corn fibre component, which is commercially available, may
typically comprise from 70 to 100 wt% soluble corn fibre on a dry weight basis, and/or may be in the form of a liquid which typically comprises from 50 to 85 wt% soluble corn fibre based on the total weight of the component. Such a binder mixture, of soluble dietary fibre and low dextrose equivalent (DE) sugar, e.g. glucose, syrup, can achieve a snack food product which is neutral in taste, or when spices are added e.g. chilli pepper, black pepper, etc., is a savory product.
[0018] The snack food product of the preferred embodiments of the present invention can deliver a crispy, light and airy texture as a result of using the specific binder system in the weight % range of the present invention. The snack food product of the preferred embodiments of the present invention can also deliver a multi-texture experience as a result of using the specific dry mixture comprising at least one grain, at least one seed and at least one nut. The snack food product of the preferred embodiments of the present invention is not overly filling, allowing for prolonged enjoyment.
[0019] The preferred embodiments of the snack food product of the present invention use a binder, including a soluble dietary fibre component, such as soluble corn fibres, which is additionally combined with a sugar syrup, typically a low DE glucose and/or fructose syrup having a maximum dextrose equivalent (DE) of 40 and preferably a dextrose equivalent (DE) within the range of 25 to 40. Preferably the binder consists of the soluble dietary fibre component, such as soluble corn fibres, and the low DE sugar syrup having a maximum dextrose equivalent (DE) of 40, preferably a dextrose equivalent (DE) within the range of 25 to 40, which is typically a low DE glucose and/or fructose syrup.
[0020] The present invention is at least partly predicated on the finding by the present inventors that mixing soluble dietary fibres with low DE glucose and/or fructose syrup allows to balance (i) the nutritional content of the product, so that the product is rich in fibre, (ii) at an acceptable product cost, since typical commercially available glucose and/or fructose syrups, in particular low dextrose equivalent (DE) glucose and/or fructose syrups, have a cost which is approximately one half of the cost of typical commercially available soluble fibre components for use as binders together with (iii) low sweetness to achieve a savory snack food cluster in which the dry mixture components are bound by the blend of the soluble dietary fibre and glucose and/or fructose syrup in the binder system; and (iv) in which the binder has a desired fibre content.
[0021 ] In the preferred embodiments of the snack food product of the present invention, the dry mixture ingredients, such as puffed and/or extruded grains, preferably wholegrains, mixed with nuts and seeds, are bound together by the blend of soluble dietary, e.g. corn, fibre and low DE glucose and/or fructose syrup, which can be baked at a relatively high temperature 160-170 °C for a period of from 8 - 10 minutes (based on prototyping results) allowing to achieve, in either loose clusters or shaped bars, a desired light and crispy texture, with minimized shiny glaze and positive nutritionals, namely rich in fibre and a good source of protein.
